PATENT LARKIN S. OSBORN, OF DUNCAN, OREGON.

SAW SET.

Application filed May 23,

To all whom it wmy concern.

Be it known that I, LARKIN S. OSBORN, a. citizen or" the United States, residing Duncan. in the county of Um atilla and 5 State 01 Oregon, have invented certain new and us. 111 Improvements in a Saw Set, of which the followingis a specification.

This invention relates to a saw set and has for its objects to provide a device for setting: the teeth of saws, which device is capable of being used on large variety of saws such as cross cut saws. drag saws. circular cut saws. etc. The device also aims to provide a simple and eli'icient structure. which is easily operated and which is reli able.

lVith the above and numerous other objects in view as will appear as the description progresses, the invention resides in cer tain novel features of construction and in the coinbii'iatioi'i. and arrangement of parts as will. be hereinafter more fully described and claimed.

In the drawings lfiigure l is a perspective view of vice showing thesame on a saw,

li i c'ure 2 is a perspective view of the device. looking at the opposite side from that shown in Figure 1, and

l ip nre 3 i, a detail section througli the bolt used for setting the saw teeth.

Referring to the drawing in detail it will be seen that numeral 5 indicates a block which is slotted so as to provide a pair of spaced parallel walls 6. The body of the block is provided with a r cess 7 which communicates with the. space between the walls 6. The body is set over the saw as is indi cated in Figure 1 so that the walls 6 straddle the saw and. the tooth to be set projects into the recess 7. A set screw 8 is provided in one of the walls 6 for engagement with. the saw thus holding the block in locked engagement with the saw and preventing the tooth from being sprung when it is be ing set. A bolt 9 is threaded through the block 5 so as to project into the recess 7 the de- 1923. Serial No. 640,918.

and the end which is projected into this recess has swivelly mounted thereon a tooth. engaging shoe 10 as is shown to advantage in Figure A nut 11 is threaded on the bolt 9 and a set screw 12 is associated therewith so that this nutv may be locked in a desired position or the bolt.

In using the device it is first placed upon he saw as previously explained and the Hit ii is set on the bolt at the desired poition depending upon the angle to which the teeth of the saw are to be set. The. bolt J is provided with a transversely extending;- handle 11% which may be rotated tor SCl'0\\- ion the bolt 9 and engaging the shoe 1o with the tooth ot the saw. This is continued until the nut.- 11 reaches the surface oi the block and the tooth is then properly set.

Having thus described my invention what I claim as new is 1. A device of the class described including a body adapted to be disposed on a saw and setting means associated with. the body, said setting means including a bolt threaded through the body, a nut on the bolt, and means for locking the nuton the bolt in a desired position so that the move uieut of the bolt in respect to the body may be limited.

2. A device of the class described includ ing a block having a slot xtending from one longitudinal edge and a recess extending; from the other longitudinal edge and communicating with the slot, a bolt threaded through the block so as to project into the recess, a shoe in the recess and swivelled on the end of the bolt, adjustable means on the bolt whereby the movement of the bolt may be limited as desired, and means on the block for securing the same to a saw.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesss. 7
